Sandi Scheuber has lived parallel lives, one as a systems engineer for a large organization and the other as a dancer and choreographer. She has experienced times of great courage putting dance first along with many years of dance being after hours only.
Here she shares with Julie the value of purposefully not advancing up the ladder in her life as an engineer in order to make real time for her dancing life.
This is not a story of leaving everything behind to follow one's passions. This is a story of how one woman took the safe career path but has also boldly followed through on her dream of dancing, letting her passion lead the way.

From Zimbabwe To Scotland Against All Odds, Making and Teaching Art with Donald Hargrove
Donald Hargrove's most recent collection of digital paintings "The Landscape of Origins" is an exquisite testimony to his connection to nature and the essence of life.
From a young age, Donald Hargrove knew he wanted to be an artist. Born and raised in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia then), Donald's life was shaped by deep friendships with his neighbors, his love of the land, and the joy he first experienced at the Mzilikazi Art Centre.
Most recently, he survived extraordinary surgeries that saved his life from a disease that took his right arm, shoulder girdle and major musculature on one side, and reconnected him with his love of art making during the intense lockdowns of Covid in Scotland.
He is exhibiting again, and shares his journey of healing and creative discovery here with Julie.

My Surprising Life With Poetry with David Coleman
David has been a ski patroller, has skied 21,000 feet in the Andes, has travelled to Tibet, Peru and to other parts of the world, has been a full time potter, an inventor and more recently a school bus driver. Through all of his different iterations, poetry has come with him, and has given him a sense of purpose and a way to explore the world that keeps him sane and gives him a soulful way to be with people and be seen.
David shares what it was like to eventually meet Robert Bly and Mary Oliver and how his own poetry has developed over the years and how what he calls "the language of dreams" shapes his poetry life now.
David's relaxed and yet potent experience with reading and writing poems is a refreshing and accessible lifelong journey, full of many surprises.
